Dorothy was born on August 7, 1923, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She graduated from Fairmont, MN High School in 1941. On February 1, 1946, Dorothy married Howard Wickler in Fairmont. Together, they served at Red Bird Mission, a United Methodist boarding school in Beverly, Kentucky. When the opportunity to work in the Philippines came, they gladly went to a church-related university in the Philippines. She graduated with a BA degree in Religious Studies and a minor in Library Science from Silliman University in the Philippines.

A key motivation for Dorothy was sharing the Good News of Christ with others and living God’s plan for her life. These interests and His calling continued throughout her life.

Dorothy is survived by her five children, Karen Moore, Bruce Wickler, Diane Lambrecht, Stephen Wickler, and Roger Allen-Wickler. Also surviving are their spouses; eleven grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; brother, Dale (Donna) Smith; and sister-in-law, Marilyn (Arlo) Hunstad.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Howard, in 2016.
